Should I massage lumps that came a day after Restylane in my lips?

August 22, 2018
Asked By:AxlRose22 in Bowling Green, KY

I had 0.5ml of resylane filler in my lips yesterday and I can feel a lump forming. I was advised not to massage until the 48 hour mark but others have said I should already be massaging. I don’t want to mess about or make it worse.

Answer: I would not advise an aggressive massage as this will only create more swelling and will prolong healing time.
